Gum printing is a way of making photographic reproductions without the use of silver halide s. The process used salts of dichromate in common with a number of other related processes such as sun printing . When mixtures of mucilaginous, protein containing materials together with soluble salts of dichromate are exposed to ultraviolet light, the protein content becomes tanned and resistant to solution in water. The untanned material can be washed away in warm water leaving a hardened, tanned protein negative. For gum printing a solution of gum arabic is mixed with either potassium or ammonium dichromate. The higher the proportion of dichromate, the more sensitive the mixture. However, increasing the concentration of dichromate also reduces the contrast which is very low at best. The right concentration of dichromate is always a compromise between speed and contrast. Using ammonium dichromate allows concentrations up to 15 of the active ingredient whereas potassium dichromate is limited to about 10 . Exceeding these concentrations results in deposits of chromic acid in the dried film which ruins any attempts at printing. The greatest sensitivity expressed as an American National Standards Institute ASA film speed speed rating is estimated to be about ASA 0.003. The resulting mucilaginous mixture is spread on a suitable base and allowed to dry in the dark. A contact negative the same size of the finished print is then placed on top of the dried coating and exposed to an ultraviolet ... can then be inked using proprietary oil based printing ink and impressions made using a simple pressure printing press. Each negative can be made to yield several copies or even copies in different colours. However the fragile nature of the dried gum surface usually will restrict re use to only one or two copies.

Surface printing is the oldest automated printing method still in use today. Surface machines lay down very heavy amounts of ink . Because the ink is pushed onto the paper, the images are not as crisp as the other methods. Also, there is no drying stage between laying down each color, so the order of color run throughs is very important to keep the inks from running into each other. Because of the amount of ink required for impressions, and the inexact image rendering, surface printing has a very distinct look. It is especially well suited for multi colored floral patterns and classic document designs. Surface printers can usually print up to 12 colors.

unreferenced date December 2007 Combination printing is the technique of using two or more photograph ic images in conjunction with one another to create a single image. Combination printing was popular in the mid 19th century due to the limitations of the negative s light sensitivity and camera technology. For example, the long exposures required at the time to create an image would properly expose the main subject, such as a building, but would completely overexpose the sky. The sky would then lack detail, usually appearing as solid white. Hippolyte Bayard was the first to suggest combining two separate negatives, one of the subject matter and a properly exposed negative of clouds, to create a balanced photograph. The technique was also used to create new, original compositions. Photographers such as William Lake Price and Oscar Rejlander are famous for using combination printing. Rejlander s Two Ways of Life is one of the most distinguished examples of the technique, combining 32 negatives to create the final image. Controversy broke out in the photographic community about the use of combination printing in the mid 19th century. Photographs originally had been regarded as truth and that the camera never lied. However, with the ability to manipulate the final product, it shattered the notion that photographs depicted truth. The technique paved the way for yet another artistic process, photomontage .
